Read the Bible … and with care!

Morning: Psalm 30, 32; Deuteronomy 7:17-26; Titus 3:1-15
Evening: Psalms 42, 43; John 1:43-51
It’s shocking that in the Book of Deuteronomy God so favours one nation that it says he will act on their behalf to destroy other nations. We call this genocide.  All too often, in Christian history too, one human group has thought itself superior to others. This is not Jesus’ Way. Jesus’ concern goes far beyond the well being of one nation, species, or individual. Jesus promises that Nathanael will see greater things than anyone has ever imagined. You can believe and trust that he’s talking about the well being of the whole cosmos.
